This collection of 39 original essays is designed to support film screenings. Each chapter focuses on a single adult film—a category broadly construed as films that foreground sex as a primary narrative, aesthetic, or marketing element. The chapters draw on a variety of perspectives, contexts, histories, themes, and politics in examinations of style, genre, authorship, performance, and stardom.The first of its kind, Screening Adult Cinema brings together a broad range of established scholars alongside new voices to demonstrate the global breadth and diversity of adult cinema, from a variety of time periods and transnational contexts, paying particular attention to regions and films that have been underrepresented within existing adult film scholarship. Following the Screening Cinema series, Screening Adult Cinema is intended as a teaching text and reference for courses in which film screenings are a core activity, while also appealing to adult film scholars.This unique collection will be invaluable for courses on adult or exploitation film history, feminist film studies, global queer cinema, and porn studies. It will also be useful for general courses in media studies with a focus on gender, sex, and sexuality.

Nothing Censored, Nothing Gained tracks how women and gay male entrepreneurs were central to the production, distribution and exhibition of adult media in and adjacent to Los Angeles County, and how these key players used industrial tactics to introduce new and more explicit forms of cultural production.The book develops a queer media industry studies approach to analyse how these creative entrepreneurs ventured into the nascent commercial adult film industry by maneuvering around and sometimes colliding with cultural regulatory mechanisms of censorship. Moving beyond representational approaches to censorship, this book's novel examination of production, distribution and exhibition provides insights into the industrial and cultural interworkings of historical adult media industries and how content is related to business developments and constraints.Through this investigation, the book assesses manifold modes of censorship ranging from bureaucratic restrictions on market availability to law enforcement's stringent policing of exhibition spaces under legal regimes including obscenity.

Producer, distributor, and director Doris Wishman (1912–2002) was a pioneering woman in the film industry, leaving a body of work almost 30 films strong. Largely overlooked by critical and cultural analysis, Wishman worked in the normatively neglected film genre of sexploitation and adult film, but works like Hideout in the Sun (1960), Bad Girls Go To Hell (1965), Double Agent 73 (1974) and Each Time I Kill (2007) demonstrate an interest in complicated, ideological and often troubling social performances of the contemporary human condition. ReFocus: The Films of Doris Wishman positions Wishman as a significant and overlooked force in American independent film, with an impact on how we currently understand the categories of cult, exploitation, horror, experimental and avant-garde cinema.
